Stopped off on my way to work today to check on the status of this cache. As a previous finder I can confirm that the cache is no longer residing in the spot where I found it previously. Checked in all of the other possibilities on the structure, and around the base just in case it had fallen down, but nothing was found. I think we can confidently state that is one is GONE.
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

inspicio please explain the inconsistency between my NA log here and the one on GC5MHY3 that you didn't flag as being within 28 days.
The time has now elapsed and there's been no response from the CO. Time to bring it to a Reviewer's attention.
Inspicio - what do you mean by this?
*There is no point doing a NA log before 28 days as it will always be ignored.*
28 days before what? Someone logging a DNF well there are multiple. The NM log that was placed, but we know the cacher isn't active and do anything about it. If there is a GC guideline that says an NA log can't be placed within a month of a NM, then please point me in that direction. And the site should prevent that, if that is the case.

CO hasn't visited since May 2014 so are no longer active, but I accept the mods have to respect the previous NM log and give them time to fix it. But they likely won't, hence the NA log. So it's just a flag to make something happen and put it in the system
No luck for me either this visit, I suspect it may need a check. At least the spider I scared was only small as I ran the pen along the gap to see if it was hiding in there.
No luck for me today. I scared the bejeezus out of a largish spider or in turn scared the bejeezus out of me and that was the end of the search!
Could not see anything on the structure or on the ground around GZ.
The half brick mentioned in the clue was not there either.
Needs a CO check.

#334 found with alnic39 on a day caching in Manly area. walked past it twice while looking for trigs then remembered that this cache was here. Log was very wet
There is a stone monument just down the road. I thought that was a worthy place for a cache. However, tftc.
Streak day #156 - after a very busy week I was so glad it was finally Friday. After finishing up at my pizza job I wanted to grab a quick cache and remembered spotting this one on the map earlier in the week. Since I was in Manly it wasn't much of a detour to go home this way. I pulled up opposite the sign and dashed across the street. There were no cars passing yet, so I was able to make a quick grab for the cache. After trying to make myself invisible whilst waiting for a couple of cars to whiz by, I moved slightly away from the sign to crouch down and sign the log. With the log replaced in the cache,I rushed back to the sign and just got it in place before more lights appeared over the rise. I shrunk back against the bushes waiting until it was clear for me to cross back over to my car. Not sure if anyone noticed me, but they probably thought my car parked where it was was odd. TFTC.
Day at the beach with the Geokids couldn't pass this one by.
Very busy road. Good hide.

Parked legally 13m from the cache, "popped" it free, SL and replaced (the hardest part).
quick run alongside the road then found a fairly easy return path through bush. log might run out after about another dozen visits. SL. TFTC
I needed more than half a brick! Finally reached it but took longer to place it back, TFTC
There are not too many caches where the hint is longer than the description. TFTC Angelo G
Was wondering who on earth would hide a cache here but it actually was a pretty cool one!
Stopped off on the way home from visiting the Dalwood Jumble sale. Quickly located the cache, the cache title now makes perfect sense, and easily retrieved it with the aid of local resources. Replacement was a different matter and required further local resources obtained a little further from GZ.
There was lots of traffic on this Saturday morning and, as I was replacing the cache, I wondered how I was going to explain my actions to any passing police officers who might stop to see what I was up to. A simple but great hide. TFTC.

I found this one mid-morning so the road was not too busy. It was quickly grabbed without the need of any tools. SL TFTC
With The Rats closing in on his event to mark 10,000 finds, he asked steeba and I to accompany him on one last push to get closer to that number. The Northern Beaches of Sydney was our target
The was our first stop of the morning. In the pre-dawn traffic it was quite difficult to run across the road to make the find.
Cheers

I must have driven past this cache 100 times or more since it was hidden and today was the day. I noticed the brick has been gone for many months but I parked the car in such a way as to assist me in my quest. Also managed to plug another hole in the calendar of finds. Dipped a few TBs through. Many thanks angelo G
Excellent! Bit smelly with some unfortunately placed roadkill, but awesome hide and cache name

CJ and I found this one today on an stinking hot and steamy summer morning.
We've also been wanting to knock this one off the our list, after driving by so frequently. Thankfully the only muggles were fast ones passing by in traffic. It wasn't too hard to find the cache although it was a bit of a schlep in the steamy heat of the day back to the safe parking spot. After reading some recent logs and then rechecking, I quickly spotted the tell tale sign before showing CJ. We soon had the cache in hand, signed the log and replaced it quickly. The container is in good nick.
It was really steamy on the way back to the car, but satisfying to make the find. Anyway, it was a great day to chase down more caches. Thanks angelo_g for another of your caches. SL TNLN TFTC

Had no idea what the clue was, as we couldn't see any 'half bricks' around. As we were heading back to the car though the cache name clicked in my head as I looked around and Dad soon had the cache in hand.
Thanks for the cache angelo g.
My Dad had promised me a day of GeoCaching anywhere, and I chose Sydney. After dropping Mum off at Chatswood for a bit of shopping, Dad and I headed to Manly Dam, to attempt the Zargfinder's Power Trail, and then grab some more caches up at Dee Why and surrounds. The ZFPT was awesome, excellent bushwalking, magnificent caches and plenty of wildlife. We saw a massive 6ft python, a wallaby, plenty of water dragons, a yabby and a goanna! And although we didnt manage to grab most of the Dee Why caches, it was still tons of fun.

Second cache for the day. Found the cache quickly - working out how to retrieving it took a bit longer.

Quick drive by - there seem to be new 'no parking' signs here, so not much space.
Thought I would get some serious kilometres for a geocoin from Canada.

Needed a find for today and drove out to this one. Had a fair idea of what and where, but just needed to wait for the traffic to disappear. Made the find, SL and replaced. Log is getting a little old and I think it's being added to. Could do with a refresh, but a is a . TFTC.

Did not find this cache. It was nowhere to be found! The local council may have cleared it out. I suggest the owner replaces it with a new one as it is not behind the sign as the hint says so.
3/06/13. 7:42 AM. Cache #663. Current streak: 267 days. Yesterday, on my way down to some caches further south in Seaforth, I drove past this one after noting a safe place to park, and decided to leave it for this morning as a pre-work cache. Returned this morning to the location, and pretty much walked straight up to it; nice quick find on a sunny morning. TFTC }:)
Surprising how this hasn't been found for two months. I guess there are just so many caches out there these days. I followed the Parkway south past a couple of old finds and pulled up nearby. Glad of a cache like this on a rainy day when the streak is still going. Followed the directions and made the find. Did the duties out of the drizzle in the car - the log is full so I tore off another strip of paper which should be okay for another dozen finds. Replaced as the cars flew by.
Thanks!

Quick and easy find on short ride along Wakehurst Parkway. The cache was actually lying on the ground and not where it was supposed to be, so after signing the log, I put it back to where I assumed it was supposed to be (according to the hint).
Found on the way back from the power trail as we thought we could squeeze another quick one in. Had to watch the traffic carefully and used the object provided. It took a couple of goes and in the end we got there. We signed the log and re hid. TFTC
# 2293. The last of eight finds for the day on our way back from Barrenjoey Lighthouse. Liked the title of the cache and pulled over on the busy road to make a quick find and be on our way. TFTC
Travelling to Barrenjoey for a walk up the hill with Bettyboo3747, and we grabbed a few on the way.
Travelled this road many times, but never stopped to grab this cache. We were going out to a BBQ so this was a very good time.
A quick stop and grab. Great name.
Thanks, Robmc.

Went for a run around the Manly Warringah Park picking up a few geocaches along the way. This was the last one after a 4 hour run, none too soon either, was getting tired from the heat of the day. I knew where this would be but tried and found nothing. Not easy, with all those cars zooming past. decided to make a decoy by pretending to tie my shoe laces and then I spotted the cache - lying on the ground. So, I've tried to wedge it back in where I think it should be but it doesn't go far in and may fall out again. TFTC
Found with my boy Zalgar.
Sorry, Im so far behind with my logs Ive decided to cut'n'paste to catch up!

After a few frustrating DNFs this one made up the find for the evening. Wanted something nice and easy as this promised and delivered. Pulled up 80m from the cache and knew where it would be right away. Zhaoy and I made a quick find then sped off home in our new (borrowed) car So many Trigs around here... need to come back!
Cheers.

Found this cache very quickly, but that was the easy part. The hard part - getting it down without being noticed, in rush hour! We managed to get a chance after about five minutes, returned to the geocar, signed the logsheet and waited a further five minutes to place the cache back.

Found en route to Manly this evening. Hard one with all the passing traffic. Nice hide though. Thanks angelo_g.
Stopped on the way back from a coast visit. Not a cache to try in peak hour, especially if your northbound. Couldn't see or feel it at first but stood back for a better view and spotted it. TFTC.
Driven past here many times since the cache appeared, but always seemed to have more important things to do than stop. With that kind of attitude, I'll never be a true cacher
Anyway stopped today - hardest part was waiting for a gap in the traffic to extract the cache.

#3 of 6 geocaches found today with no DNFs.
I was very happy when there turned out to be a spot to stop just before the geozone. We had many cars behind us so couldn't just pull of wakehurst pkwy without a real spot to stop. Once we got to the sign, I realised mum was the only one who could reach it, even with the half brick. [:(!] After some fiddling she did find it, but we needed a pen to get it out of it's hiding spot properly. I am so happy that it is a bison tube! (I am obsessed with those things) TFTC

Heading toward this after snapping a pic of a GCA trig virtual along the raod, I knew what I was likely to be looking for, and was pleased to see I was right.
Stopping at the point, I realised I was on the worong side of the road, and about 2.30pm, so donned the fluoro safety vest and looked official.
First glance did not spot it, so I grabbed a tool from the ute, and after a moments reflection had the cache in hand.
Nicely hidden, thanks.
(I wanted to drop off a geocoin - obviously not enough space here!)

At first we were looking for an attractive cache container, only to find it squirreled away in a special place. Thanks angelo g.
